[Python-talk] mat3d error

[Labitt, Bruce]

maxint reports back 9223372036854775807 that is 64 bits?
2**63 ==> is really close to that number, so I'd say it was 64 bit.

What would a 64 bit python look like?

This is what I have:
$ python
Python 2.4.3 (#1, Mar 13, 2008, 13:35:20)
[GCC 4.1.2 20070626 (Redhat 4.1.2-14)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright" ... for more information.

Yeah, but when you run that python, do you get the 32bit version or the
64bit version?

-----------------------------------------------
python
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Jul 10 2008, 17:24:48) 
[GCC 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.__file__
'/usr/lib/python2.5/os.pyc'
>>>

-------------------------------------------------
I expect that you are running the 32bit python by default.  Importing a
module and checking its __file__ attribute should make it clear.  There
are other, smarter ways to know your platform, but I don't remember them
off the top of my head.
